Old Friends Revisited..

RAOK Lives..

Click pic to enter the light.

I once owned and operated a blog award program that worked on the premise of a random act of kindness. It was a pretty neat thing but it just be to be too much for me and I had to retire it after a couple of years, (medical reasons.) Occasionally now, I turn out a graphic or something, surprises for online friends.. Just out of the blue. A new effort of spreading good will around in a world that surely needs some.

This is the opening page of a website I am building for Vonnia, a poet I know. My gift to her for no other reason than that. All I ask in return is for her to pay it forwards.. Can't beat that!

Still Floppin'...

Well, here I am, day number eight and still feeling like dog-poo. Maybe a little better than warmed over, (I hope) but still not feeling up to snuff.

If this is west nile virus I can tell you I will never go outside into nature again with out a ton of bug reppelent smeared THICK on my body. I'm not going to care if I reppel everything human or bug..I don't care if I am a walking bug-bomb! I don't care, this being sick is no picnic. It's more like malaria or some damn thing.. All I want to do is sleep..Sleep, sleep. I wake up sleepy and sleep, sleepy.

DC.. and nothing else.

A little over a week ago I began to not feel good. Each day that went by I felt a little less than good until today.

Today, I feel like dog crap warmed over.. Not a pretty thing.

People in my county, Pierce, are dropping like flies.. 2 confirmed cases of West Nile Virus about 7 miles from where I live. They say that it is like a bad, case of flu and in about 2 weeks, it will go away,(1 percent of people will die from it.)

T asked me today if I wanted to go to the ER? "Hell no! If I'm going to kick I would rather be it at home.." or some damn thing.. I have my reasons trust me.

Hopefully the worst is here and tomorrow I will be on the mend.. otherwise, I will be in further touch.. Posting here, fishing for sympathy.

8Ball Logic..#2

Every once in awhile, I get a bug up my butt and start thinking about a food I really liked as a kid.. Then pretty quick I'm asking T to whip some up at which time I discover how wrong those memories can be.

Last year, I got it into my head that I used to like sauerkraut on top of my hotdogs. "YEEEEEEEACH!" That was a false memory. I can't believe I ever liked that crap.... Next in line was liverwurst. I used to eat it by the truckload. Liverwurst sandwiches using miracle whip salad dressing instead of mayonnaise. If you would like to use an effective way to torture someone.. apply the liverwurst and miracle whip sammish. They will be telling you what ever you want in no time flat.

Spinach! I used to sit in front of the TV and gobble my spinach along with Popeye.. Now just the smell of it in the can makes my stomach roll a bit.

My parents were children when the Great Depression was on and so in order to survive they had to eat all kinds of things that I never acquired a lasting taste of but, for some unknown reason.. now that I am over 50 years old I get to thinking about the rewind. The quest to touch a memory. Liverwurst ain't it.

Funny thing is.. I NEVER could stand cabbage and now? I can't get enough.

8Ball Logic..#1

Eddie tagged me with this damn thing about 8 things people don't know about you.. and I have been giving it mucho'thoughts.

#1. I self-taught myself how to write HTML and create computer graphics as a way to keep from commiting suicide.#2. I flunked High School.. #3. I have an obsession with the number 8..#4. I used to wear my hair braided and in a ponytail that reached nearly to my waist.#5. I used to work part time as a bouncer.#6. I have a gun in my back pocket when I mow the yard.#7. I believe what the Hopi Prophecy says is going to happen, will. *LINK HERE*#8. I am a sucker for a pretty girl.

I want to add to #2 and say; I got my GED, went back to school in 2001, (at the age of 49) Graphc Technologies and graduated with a 3.0 grade average. Not to bad for a high school dropout, I would say.

Apple U #5

I really enjoyed watching Bob Ross paint on the tv.. In a half hour he would paint a whole picture explaining about how each element of his painting exsisted in his world. He would say, "You can have anything you want in your world.."

Turns out that there is an inner as well as outer in the Apple Universe. This is #5. Click the pic for the desktop version.
